　　Ⅰ.閱讀理解

　　A

　　(2024·重慶，A)

　　At thirteen，I was diagnosed (診斷) with a kind of attention disorder.It made school difficult for me.When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks，I could not.

　　In my first literature class，Mrs.Smith asked us to read a story and then write on it，all within 45 minutes.I raised my hand right away and said，“Mrs.Smith，you see，the doctor said I have attention problems.I might not be able to do it.”

　　She glanced down at me through her glasses，“You are no different from your classmates，young man.”

　　I tried，but I didn't finish the reading when the bell rang.I had to take it home.

　　In the quietness of my bedroom，the story suddenly all became clear to me.It was about a blind person，Louis Braille.He lived in a time when the blind couldn't get much education.But Louis didn't give up.Instead，he invented a reading system of raised dots (點)，which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind.

　　Wasn't I the “blind” in my class，being made to learn like the “sighted”students？My thoughts spilled out and my pen started to dance.I completed the task within 40 minutes.Indeed，I was no different from others；I just needed a quieter place.If Louis could find his way out of his problems，why should I ever give up?

　　I didn't expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs.Smith，so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day—with an “A” on it.At the bottom of the paper were these words：“See what you can do when you keep trying？”

　　語篇解讀：本文講述了作者上學時的個人經歷。作者有注意力不集中的問題，但在老師的鼓勵下，受到盲人故事的激勵，作者最終克服了自己的問題。由此告訴我們一個人可以通過努力克服自己的缺陷。

　　1．The author didn't finish the reading in class because ______.

　　A．he was new to the class

　　B．he was tired of literature

　　C．he had an attention disorder

　　D．he wanted to take the task home

　　答案：C　細節理解題。此題為直接信息題，帶著題干回到原文搜尋信息，定位第一段“At thirteen，I was diagnosed (診斷) with a kind of attention disorder.It made school difficult for me.When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks，I could not.”可知作者不能完成老師布置的任務是因為患有一種注意力障礙癥。C項中had an attention disorder與文中信息一致，故選C項。

　　2．What do we know about Louis Braille from the passage?

　　A．He had good sight.

　　B．He made a great invention.

　　C．He gave up reading.

　　D．He learned a lot from school.

　　答案：B　細節理解題。根據文章第五段最后兩句“But Louis didn't give up.Instead，he invented a reading system of raised dots, which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind.”可知他發明了一個閱讀系統，給盲人打開了一個全新的知識的世界。故選B項。

　　3．What was Mrs.Smith's attitude to the author at the end of the story?

　　A．Angry. B．Impatient.

　　C．Sympathetic. D．Encouraging.

　　答案：D　推理判斷題。此題考查對觀點態度的推理。史密斯老師給作者打了“A”，并且寫了批語。最后一句話“See what you can do when you keep trying？”形式上為問句，實則是對作者鼓勵的話語，她是在鼓勵作者只要不懈努力就一定能戰勝困難取得成功。因此選擇D項。

　　4．What is the main idea of the passage?

　　A．The disabled should be treated with respect.

　　B．A teacher can open up a new world to students.

　　C．One can find his way out of difficulties with efforts.

　　D．Everyone needs a hand when faced with challenges.

　　答案：C　主旨大意題。本文主要講述作者是一個有注意力障礙癥的學生，在老師的激勵下，克服困難的故事。說明只要不懈努力就一定能戰勝困難取得成功。文章強調的是不懈努力的重要性而不是對殘疾人的尊重、老師對學生的作用或困難中的幫助，故選C項。

　　B

　　(2024·黑龍江哈三中一模)

　　I prefer Lynne Truss's phraseology: I am a grammar “sticker”. And, like Truss—author of Eats, Shoots & Leaves—I have a “zero tolerance” approach to grammar mistakes that make people look stupid.

　　Now, Truss and I disagree on what it means to have “zero tolerance”. She thinks that people who mix up basic grammar “deserve to be struck by lightning, hacked (砍) up on the spot and buried in an unmarked grave”， while I just think they deserve to be passed over for a job—even if they are otherwise qualified for the position.

　　Everyone who applies for a position at either of my companies, iFixit or Dozuki, takes a compulsory grammar test. If job hopefuls can't distinguish between “to” and “too”， their applications go into the bin.

　　Of course, we write for a living. iFixit. com is the world's largest online repair manual (指南), and Dozuki helps companies write their own technical documentation, like paperless work instructions and step-by-step user manuals. So, it makes sense that we've made a strong strike against grammar errors.

　　But grammar is relevant for all companies. Yes, language is constantly changing, but that doesn't make grammar unimportant. Good grammar is credibility, especially on the Internet. And, for better or worse, people judge you if you can't tell the difference between “their” “there” and “they're”．

　　Good grammar makes good business sense—and not just when it comes to hiring writers. Writing isn't in the official job description of most people in our office. Still, we give our grammar test to everybody, including our salespeople, our operations staff, and our programmers.

　　Grammar signifies more than just a person's ability to remember high school English. I've found that people who make fewer mistakes on a grammar test also make fewer mistakes when they are doing something completely unrelated to writing—like stocking shelves or labeling parts. It is the same with programmers. Applicants who don't think writing is important are likely to think lots of other things also aren't important.

　　語篇解讀：本文是一篇議論文。作者認為掌握語法不僅僅意味著一個人中學階段的學習能力，在工作中也同樣重要。一個認為寫作不重要的員工很可能也會認為很多其他事情不重要。這種人不是他們公司所需要的。

　　5．The author agrees with Lynne Truss in that ________.

　　A．grammar mistakes can't be tolerated

　　B．books on grammar make people stupid

　　C．people need to learn basic grammar

　　D．grammar mistakes are absolutely unavoidable

　　答案：A　細節理解題。根據第一段內容可知，作者在不容忍語法錯誤方面和林恩·特拉斯觀點相同。故選A項。

　　6．What's the author's “zero tolerance” approach to these job seekers who mix up basic grammar?

　　A．They should be left out for a job.

　　B．They have to correct their mistakes.

　　C．They aren't qualified for their jobs.

　　D．They must be severely punished.

　　答案：A　細節理解題。根據第二段第二句“...while I just think they deserve to be passed over for a job—even if they are otherwise qualified for the position.”可知，作者認為對那些混淆基礎語法的求職者應該不予考慮。故選A項。

　　7．Which of the following is TRUE of iFixit and Dozuki?

　　A．Only one of them has a compulsory grammar test.

　　B．They are companies where one learns grammar.

　　C．Grammar is quite important for the two companies.

　　D．They depend on grammar correction for a living.

　　答案：C　細節理解題。根據第三段內容可知，iFixit和Dozuki兩家公司會把連基礎語法都無法分清的求職者的申請表扔到垃圾箱里。由此可見其對語法的重視。故選C項。

　　8．What can we learn from the text?

　　A．Companies giving grammar tests may have no good business sense.

　　B．Grammar becomes unimportant as language is constantly changing.

　　C．A “zero tolerance” approach to grammar errors might seem a little unfair.

　　D．People who pay attention to writing may pay attention to other things.

　　答案：D　推理判斷題。根據文章最后一句“Applicants who don't think writing is important are likely to think lots of other things also aren't important.”可知，認為寫作不重要的員工可能認為其他事情也不重要。由此可以推斷，重視寫作的人也可能會重視其他的事情。故選D項。

　　Ⅱ.七選五

　　根據短文內容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。

　　My daughter Chloe is starting out in college in the fall. With her newfound independence will come the newfound responsibilities of dealing with money. __1__ Now I have a few lessons I'd like to share with Chloe, and with anyone else starting out in college.

　　__2__ OK, this is almost the only lesson you need. The biggest reason you get into money problems is that you spend money you don't really have. Then you end up in the hole, and it's hard to get out of the hole. You work too many hours to keep up with your spending. And you end up with a life that's about nothing but trying to pay for all the spending on something you don't really need. __3__

　　Make a very simple budget. It's a terrible thing for people who've never done a budget, but it will become very simple and easy if you know how to do it. __4__ If the bills add up to more than the income, remove some bills. Pay bills right away. If you have the money, pay the bill as soon as it comes in. You can usually do this online, but if not, it's just a matter of writing a check, putting it in an envelope, and writing out an address—two minutes. __5__ If you let the bill-paying get pushed back, it becomes a terrible thing.

　　That's all you need to know. If you save when you're in college, avoid debt, and pay bills on time, you're golden.

　　A．Why not enjoy your life in college?

　　B．Spend less than you earn.

　　C．So spend less, work less, worry less, be happier.

　　D．Like many young people, she hates thinking about money.

　　E．First, list your income, and then list your bills.

　　E．Find ways to get things done you need to get done.

　　G．Do this two-minute action at once, so you don't have to worry about it later.

　　語篇導讀：本文是一位母親給即將上大學的孩子關于如何管理錢的幾點建議，文中提到了花錢不要超出支付能力，要學會制定預算而且要做到有錢立即付賬，不拖延。

　　1．D　考查上下文的理解及推理判斷能力。空前“With her newfound independence will come the newfound responsibilities of dealing with money.”提到和新的獨立一起到來的是處理錢的責任，所以下文1空就是關于錢的問題，所以答案為D選項。像很多年輕人一樣，她討厭考慮錢的問題。

　　2．B　考查總結歸納主題句的能力。從文章第二段第二句中“...you spend money you don't really have. Then you end up in the hole. 和 you end up with a life that's about nothing but trying to pay for all the spending on something you don't really need.”都是指花的錢超出了支付能力，結果就是努力去償付那些沒必要花的錢。所以B選項正確，意思是花的錢不要超出你所掙的錢。

　　3．C　考查對語境的理解及推理判斷能力。第二段整段都是說花錢不要超出自己的支付能力，否則就會過上為了還錢而努力掙錢的生活，而且從空前“You work too many hours to keep up with your spending.”判斷下面應該是進一步強調少花錢的重要性，故C選項正確，意思是少花錢，少工作，少擔心，更快樂。

　　4．E　考查上下文的理解及推理判斷能力。這段的建議是制定預算，而且從空后句中“If the bills add up to more than the income, remove some bills.”出現的提示詞 bill 和 income 判斷E選項正確，意思是首先列出你的收入，然后列出你的賬單。

　　5．G　考查上下文的理解及推理判斷能力。前面是說有了錢馬上付賬，付賬僅僅是需要兩分鐘的事情，所以從空前的 two minutes 判斷G為正確選項，立即做這個兩分鐘的活動，這樣過后你就不會擔心它了。

　　Ⅳ.語法填空

　　閱讀下面材料，在空白處填入適當的內容(1個單詞)或括號內單詞的正確形式。

　　(2024·東北三省三校一模)

　　The “selfie” is used to describe the self-taken photo, often from a smartphone. Someone takes about 10 selfies each time he does, and he only ends up __1__(post)one or two of those. He picks the one that he feels make him look the __2__(good). In that picture, he gains confidence. For that moment, everything bad or terrible that has happened to him __3__(remove), because that smile is what gives him the __4__(determine) to love himself.

　　I read __5__ poem recently and the young man said, “If I ask you __6__ you love，the answers will most likely roll off your tongue. You love to read. You love to write. You love your mom，your daughter，or your best friend. How long do you think you can go on and on before you say ‘I love __7__(I)’？”

　　That statement hit me like a ton of bricks. I've struggled with confidence all my life. I still do. And in __8__ way am I saying that taking a selfie is a gateway __9__ confidence. __10__， the selfie does deserve some credit for allowing individuals to express themselves.

　　1．______　2.______　3.______　4.______　5.______

　　6．______　7.______　8.______　9.______　10.______

　　語篇解讀：很多人會把自己滿意的自拍照發到網上去，他們認為這樣可以使自己增強愛自己的決心。

　　1．posting　考查非謂語動詞作賓語。end up doing sth.為固定用法，意為：以……而結束，最終做了某事。

　　2．best　 考查形容詞最高級形式。由語境可知此處表示從眾多自拍照中選一張自己認為最好的，由此判斷此處應用good的最高級。

　　3．is removed　考查時態和語態。由語境可知應用一般現在時，又因remove與everything為被動關系，故用一般現在時的被動語態。

　　4．determination　考查名詞。give sb.sth.“給某人某物”。又根據設空處前的the也可判斷設空處應為名詞。determination為不可數名詞，后面常用不定式作定語。

　　5．a　考查冠詞。設空處的poem為可數名詞，在本句中表泛指，故與不定冠詞連用。

　　6．what　考查賓語從句。根據下文的內容可推知此處應為what。

　　7．myself　考查代詞。由空前的I及語境可知設空處用反身代詞。

　　8．no　考查倒裝句式。根據本句中“am I saying”的倒裝語序，可推知設空處應為否定詞。表示否定意義的介詞短語放在句首時，后面的主謂部分常用部分倒裝形式。in no way“絕不”。

　　9．to　考查介詞。a gateway to...為固定搭配，意為：通向……之路。

　　10．However　考查副詞。前后句之間是轉折關系，并由后面的逗號可知應填副詞。

　　Ⅳ.短文改錯

　　假定英語課上老師要求同桌之間交換修改作文，請你修改你同桌寫的以下作文。文中共有10處語言錯誤，每句中最多有兩處。錯誤僅涉及一個單詞的增加、刪除或修改。增加：在缺詞處加一個漏字符號()，并在其下面寫出該加的詞。刪除：把多余的詞用()劃掉。

　　修改：在錯的詞下畫一橫線，并在該詞下面寫出修改后的詞。

　　注意：1.每處錯誤及其修改均僅限一詞；

　　2．只允許修改10處，多者(從第11處起)不計分。

　　Today we had a chemistry test. I found the test difficulty, but I tried hardly to do it. Suddenly Mary, my best friend, asking me to let her to copy my answers. After think for some time, I let her copy my answers. But after the test, all of us were called to the teacher's office. The teacher was angry because we had same answers in the tests. We were warned not to cheat again so she would need to see our parents. I was very upset. I didn't cheat. I was just helping a friend. Why does she punish me?
